Love In White For Women

Olivier and Erwin Creed made Love in White in 2005 for the reopening of the Statue of Liberty, and it is the whitest-smelling thing the house produces — luminous rather than sweet.

Orange peel opens it bright and clean, and then it does something unusual: rice sits in the heart alongside magnolia, narcissus, Italian jasmine, iris and Bulgarian rose, giving the flowers a powdery, almost starchy softness that keeps them from turning shrill. Ambergris, sandalwood and vanilla close it quietly. Formal, polished and expensive-smelling in a way that does not announce itself.

Eau de parfum, 2.5 oz. For women.
